Komatsu's Love Defense

After I repeatedly rejected A'lu's pleas, I finally saved the only remaining part of the Galala crocodile's leg meat.

Shi Meng came to the entrance and picked us both up. After saying goodbye to A Lu and Shi Meng, we returned to our hotel and smoothly prepared the banquet.

I was busy throughout the banquet until midnight. Although I was physically and mentally exhausted, my heart was filled with satisfaction and accomplishment.

After finishing a busy work, I lie in bed at night to enjoy the quiet time. My thoughts are flying and my mood is difficult to calm down.

Looking at the Xiaosong page information given by the system, since I went to the Baron Islands with A Lu, I know that in addition to cooking skills, this world of gourmet food also requires good physical strength.

It seems that I will have to strengthen my physical fitness in the future, and I can't just rely on the Four Heavenly Kings to protect me in future adventures in search of food.

I took out the food out of habit and started eating. I had gastritis there, so I basically ate small meals frequently. In this era of gourmet food, which is full of dangers, I also need to make myself stronger!

Now I can finally rest in peace, and I hope I can face new challenges with more energy tomorrow.

On this day, because we needed to purchase some ingredients, I went to the Central Wholesale Market with Johannes, the IGO Food Development Director.

It has a total area of ​​3000 hectares, and all the delicious ingredients from all over the world are concentrated here. The daily import weight of ingredients is 90 tons, and the transaction volume is 1 trillion yen. It is commonly known as the World Monster Kitchen Market.

The market was crowded with people, and there was a wide variety of vegetables. It was very lively inside, with noisy voices, bargaining, and people bargaining while choosing vegetables.

At that time, I was observing what the market of Food World looked like, but I unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance. I was very happy to see Shi Meng's familiar face.

"Ah, Mr. Shimeng, thank you for your care these days." I stretched out my hand and greeted Shimeng enthusiastically.

Shi Meng was pushing a cart full of goods by himself at this time. When he heard my voice, he turned his head and looked at me and said, "Hey - it's Xiaosong. A Lu is going to deliver goods to me today. Do you want to meet him?"

"Ah? Mr. Alu is coming?" I turned around and tried to find him in the crowd, and found that he was walking towards me carrying a flying prey that looked like a dinosaur.

Enthusiastic fans rushed over and greeted him: "It's A Lu himself who is here——"

Shi Meng looked at the prey sleeping soundly on the ground, and a hint of surprise immediately appeared on his face: "Oh, it's Shackler Norton, it must weigh more than a ton!"

"Hahahaha...how about one kilogram for one hundred thousand? The prey is still alive, and I have already pressed its acupoints." A Lu raised his head slightly, put his hands on his waist, and laughed.

Acupressure: Use fine needles or other stick-like props to stimulate the nerve tissue in the cerebellum that controls movement, causing temporary paralysis of the entire body, thereby enabling the buying and selling of living things.

However, to master this technique, one must have a wealth of knowledge and experience, and must obtain special permission depending on the prey. Many retired gourmets rely on this special permission to make a living.

I was stunned, pointing at the big guy on the ground and said, "Mr. Shi Meng, please sell some to our hotel too!"

Shi Meng nodded and agreed readily: "Okay, 1 per kilogram, how much profit can I make from my small shop!"

Johannes had a severe headache and kept rubbing his head with his hands: "It's really troubling. If we don't strictly follow the IGO market price, the price of food will change. As for Mr. Alu, I have heard rumors about you. I really hope that the other three kings can learn from you and contribute to the era of gourmet food."

A Lu waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Humph... I advise you not to have too much hope in them."

Johannes adjusted his sunglasses, smiled faintly, and continued: "Let's not talk about this for now. I just happen to have a job for you..."

A Lu shook his head, a hint of resistance appeared on his face: "Ah? IGO has a lot of exclusive gourmets, right? It's okay even if they don't look for me!"

Johannes frowned and said calmly: "The [Fruit of the Rainbow] has borne fruit!"

The expression on A Lu's face froze instantly: "What did you say?"
